C229 Independence Is the Most Wonderful Thing for a Woman
Seeing that she did not have any intention of joking, Lee Kaimi furrowed her brows and asked, "Do you want to speak to that person?"
Luo Xue thought about it and said, "No need."
Lee Kaimi did not speak anymore and helped to tidy up the room. Only the sound of the phone playing was left in the room.
...
Hong Kong South Station Airport.
"I'm sorry Madam, there's something wrong with your visa. Please go to the lounge and wait for the identification."
The beautiful security inspector looked at Luo Xue and Lee Kaimi and said gently.
"What is the problem?"
Lee Kaimi took the visa and looked at it with a confused look.
"There are still people queuing behind. Please go to the rest area first."
The security inspector said it again but did not make any explanation.
Luo Xue frowned and pulled Lee Kaimi to the rest area.
Just as they entered, they saw Du Bin.
Luo Xue instantly understood.
"Director Mu asked me to thank you."
Du Bin was exchanging pleasantries with the airport's leader on duty.
Luo Xue glanced at the security inspector who led them in.
She met Luo Xue's eyes and her face was full of guilt. She rubbed her small hands and lowered her head without saying anything.
When they returned to the hotel, Luo Xue looked at Du Bin and said,
"When is he free? I want to see him."
Du Bin helplessly scratched his head, "Young Master has been busy recently."
"Busy and still have time to spy on me?"
Luo Xue's tone was not very friendly.
Du Bin was helpless.
After Du Bin left, Luo Xue picked up her phone and called Mu Shucheng. She thought that he would not answer, but she quickly answered.
"Why don't you let me go back to North City?"
As soon as the call connected, Luo Xue asked directly.
Mu Shucheng hesitated for a moment. "I will go back tonight."
During the few hours after hanging up, Luo Xue had been sitting on the sofa waiting for Mu Shucheng.
During this time, someone from the Lee family came and said that Old Cadre Lee suddenly fainted and picked up Lee Kaimi.
Lee Kaimi felt very guilty when she left. "Every time something happens to you, I can't stay by your side."
"When did you become so tender? When you go back, you can help me scout."
After sending Lee Kaimi away, Luo Xue had been waiting for Mu Shucheng.
But looking at the clock on the wall, minute by minute, the clock was pointing at one o'clock in the morning. Mu Shucheng still did not come back.
Luo Xue did not know when she fell asleep, but when she woke up the next morning, Mu Shucheng was by her side. When he saw her, a flash of surprise appeared in the corner of her eyes.
She increasingly liked the feeling of seeing Mu Shucheng when she woke up in the morning.
But thinking about what happened at the airport last night, she hid this joy and asked calmly.
"When did you come back?"
"About three o'clock. There are some things that need to be dealt with over there. I came back late."
Luo Xue thought about it. She poured herself a glass of water when she was two o'clock. At that time, Mu Shucheng was not back yet.
Of course, she did not know that Mu Shucheng was not in Hong Kong when she called. He met Hu Yan in Thailand.
Knowing that Luo Xue wanted to go back, she rushed back overnight.
He thought the plane would arrive early, but because of the weather, it was delayed for a long time.
"Why are you thinking about going back? Didn't you say we would go together?" Mu Shucheng knew the consultant well.
Luo Xue thought about it and said, "Someone said that my design was plagiarized. I want to go back and take a look."
For some reason, Luo Xue hated this kind of conversation. She concluded that Mu Shucheng must know that someone else said she was plagiarized. Since he knew, why didn't he tell her earlier? Why did he stop her from going back to North City?
Mu Shucheng held Luo Xue in his arms and said gently, "Wait for me to come back."
Luo Xue thought he would say something touching like believing her. Who knew it would be this sentence? A touch of disappointment flashed in the corner of her eyes, but she still said the words in her heart.
"You cut off my network and my connection with the outside world. You don't want me to know about the North City, and you stopped me at the airport. Why? Are you running away?"
"Do you think I am a person who likes to run away when faced with problems?"
Luo Xue fell silent after saying that.
"My woman should not worry so much. You should spend money and take good care of your health. In the future, you will have to work hard to give birth to a healthy baby for me. If you have some heart, I will help you take care of it."
When Luo Xue heard this, her small face immediately turned red and her heart felt warm.
She was touched, but she was not a person who liked to count on men.
She always felt that being independent was the most wonderful thing for a woman.
To be an independent woman, one had to trust the ability of one's lover, and also have the ability to ensure one's own survival. They had their own interests and pursuits, and they had their own income and social circle.
This had always been the rule that Luo Xue adhered to. So even if she had an unlimited black card, she still had to work hard. Even though she had signed an agreement with Mu Shucheng, she still kept her hobbies and pursuits.
"I want to solve my own problem myself."
She said it with certainty.
Mu Shucheng wrapped his arms around Luo Xue's arm and used more strength. His tone carried a pleading tone. " Stay here with me for two days. I'll send you back to North City the day after tomorrow. If you don't want me to interfere, I won't interfere anymore... These days have been too tiring. I want you to accompany me to relax. "
Luo Xue could not bear his pitiful expression and could not bear to reject him directly. Furthermore, she could only hold back what Mu Shucheng wanted to do.
Mu Shucheng was also tired. He had been busy with work these few days, Luo Xue's matter, and Shen Yue.
The scene after Shen Yue's death kept shaking in his mind, making him feel uneasy. He always dreamed of that bloody scene. The memory of an eight year old boy was miraculously good.
He wanted to take Luo Xue to a quiet place to relieve her boredom, and he wanted to relieve himself too.
The two of them laid on the bed for a while before Mu Shucheng slowly said, "Get up and wash up. I'll take you to a place."
Luo Xue was a person with propriety, but when she looked at the gentle Mu Shucheng, she really gave up that anxious heart of hers to return to North City. Even she could not understand this point. It seemed that with him around, everything was not important.
After Mu Shucheng finished speaking, he gave Luo Xue a passionate morning kiss before getting up and putting on his clothes.
He was wearing his clothes, and Luo Xue had already sat up. She yawned and stretched. She had stayed up for too long last night and was a little tired today.
Rubbing her eyes, she slowly got up from the bed like a ghost. She walked lightly into the washroom.
Luo Xue looked at the mirror and used her rubber band to tie her long hair behind her head, revealing her palm-sized face.
The face in the mirror did not have a trace of a smile, but it was white and full. Following Mu Shucheng, she seemed to be a little fatter than before.
After coming out of the washing room, breakfast was already prepared on the table. It was very sumptuous. Luo Xue casually ate some and her appetite was not very good. Even if she did not deliberately think about the matters in North City, it would still surge in her mind.
She never would have thought that things would develop to such a stage. That kind of situation where Mu Shucheng could not bear to let her face it and carefully protect it.
However, he didn't know that a woman's sixth sense was very sensitive.
Luo Xue tried not to think too much, but she still felt uneasy.
